Combating muscular pain and osteoarthritis

The treatment of muscular pain or osteoarthritis (e.g. backache, lumbago, osteoarthritis, contractures, muscle soreness) is a 3-step process:

  1. Apply heat with Thermacare heating patches or Thera-pearl heat pack (apply for 15 to 20 minutes)
  2. Relieve pain and promote relaxation and recovery with Synthol gel, applied by massaging lightly without penetrating.
  3. Support with a lumbar support belt, neck brace or cervical collar to protect the painful area during recovery.

These pathologies can be identified by the presence of pain-stiffness and mobility problems.

Heat therapy improves mobility, reduces the pain message (analgesic), promotes muscle relaxation and reduces contractures and aches.

Warnings about analgesics

Please note that analgesics are not like other products. Read the instructions carefully before ordering. Keep medicines out of the reach of children. If symptoms persist, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice. Beware of incompatibilities with your current products.

  • Please inform your online pharmacist of your current treatments to identify any incompatibilities. The order validation form contains a personalized message field for this purpose.
  • Click here to find the package leaflet for this medicine on the Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des Produits de Santé website.

GLOSSARY (summary)


allergy
Skin reaction (itching, pimples, swelling) or general discomfort occurring after contact with a particular substance, use of a medication or ingestion of food. The main forms of allergy are eczema, urticaria, asthma, angioedema and allergic shock (anaphylactic shock). Food allergy can also result in digestive disorders.


analgesic
Medication that works against pain. Analgesics act either directly on the centers of pain in the brain or by blocking the transmission of pain to the brain.
Synonym: analgesic.


antecedents
Affection healed or always in evolution. The antecedent may be personal or family. The background is the history of a person's health.


convulsions
Involuntary contractions limited to a few muscles or generalized to the whole body. They are due to excessive pain or stimulation of the brain: fever, poisoning, lack of oxygen, brain damage. Convulsions may be due to an epileptic seizure or high fever in young children.


bruising
Infiltration of blood into the skin and mucous membranes that may occur spontaneously or, most often, after trauma. Bruises are commonly called blues.


eczema
Skin disease manifested by pimples and itching. Eczema may be due to contact with an allergic substance (contact eczema) or be linked to a genetic predisposition (atopic eczema).


epilepsy
A chronic seizure disorder associated with abnormal electrical activity of a group of brain cells. Its manifestations, varying in intensity, range from the sudden drop in attention (absences, or small evil) to loss of consciousness accompanied by abnormal muscle movements (convulsions, or great evil). Partial epilepsy, as its name implies, does not concern the whole body: the jerky movements only touch one or more muscle groups.


dosage
Quantity and distribution of the dose of a drug according to the age, weight and general condition of the patient.


Allergic reaction
Reaction due to hypersensitivity of the organism to a drug. Allergic reactions can take a wide variety of aspects: urticaria, angioedema, eczema, eruption of pimples resembling measles, etc. Anaphylactic shock is a generalized allergic reaction that causes discomfort due to a sudden drop in blood pressure.


repellent
Substance or technique intended to cause an influx of blood into the skin near a diseased organ in order to relieve it (suction cups, mustard poultice). Currently, these methods are less used and the term revulsive essentially concerns medicines for local use which cause dilation of the blood vessels of the skin.


salicylate
A family of drugs, the best known of which is acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin).


terpene
A general term for aromatic substances of vegetable origin. These are traditionally used for their respiratory properties (stimulating, expectorant, antiseptic) and their revulsive power when applied to the skin. The most used are camphor, menthol, eucalyptol, essential oils of mint, turpentine, niaouli, pine, anise, etc.
Some terpenes, and especially camphor, have been responsible for convulsions, respiratory pauses in the infant, in case of overdose. They can also cause behavioral problems in the elderly. These products should be used with caution at the extreme ages of life.


treatment
Treatment that complements the action of a specific treatment, but generally does not achieve healing on its own.
